This is beyond cruel, especially for young folks who are going through it. Cutting off LGBTQ+ youth from specialized suicide prevention help is a death sentence disguised as bureaucracy. Shame on every official who signed off on this. You’re not protecting children, you’re abandoning them.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

Acknowledging the reality! Amen.

It took Netanyahu 29 years, but he finally found an American president who was itching to go to war with him against Iran.

People will die ! 🪦 When they say cuts to Medicaid, trust me it will be Medicare as well. Not only will people die, hospitals in rural areas will close 🏥

Republicans are trying to rebrand their Big Murderous Budget Bill as “Healthcare Reform” There is no positive way to spin it, doesn’t matter what words they use — it will cut billions of dollars from Medicaid and Medicare. People will die as a result. ☎️ your Sens! www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Frankly, I don't feel safe when I know who and what they are, I can see their faces or even if they're wearing cameras to record every move they make. I certainly don't feel safe with a bunch of random heavily armed, masked slobs doing whatever the hell they please. Guess I'm funny like that.

Russia is throwing Iran under the bus after Iran saved Russia in Ukraine. LOL The worst ally in the world is Russia

Republicans say they’re targeting just criminals and gang members. Bullsh*t. They’re targeting anyone who “looks illegal," and it will only get worse. They need to make their 3,000 a day quota no matter what. #MAGAKidnappers

A shoe across the isle is appropriate for this response.

They’re banning gender care for kids by screaming about “sex change surgeries.” That’s a lie. No one’s cutting up children. It’s puberty blockers. It’s hormones. It’s reversible. They know the truth. They just don’t care. The cruelty is the point. #TransRights

OK, this is how it's done.

The Big Beautiful Bill - backed by Lindsey Graham - is a big fat lie that hurts working families and helps big corporations. Lindsey’s forgotten who he works for. Next November, we’ll remind him.

Dr. Trump has discharged Kristi Noem from the hospital. 'Sometimes you just have to rip the band-aid off and get back to catching Mexicans, he said.

💔 Adriana Smith was a 30-year-old nurse and mother. Her pain was ignored and she died. Georgia’s abortion ban forced her brain dead body to stay on machines with no hope, dignity or choice. From slavery to now, Black women’s bodies have been exploited and dehumanized. Adriana deserved better.

With masked federal agents swarming our cities, would you feel safe if you couldn’t verify who’s behind the badge?

Nope. I don't feel safe at all.

The U.S. State Department said Wednesday it is restarting the suspended process for foreigners applying for student visas. However, all applicants will now be required to unlock their social media accounts for government review. apnews.com/article/stud...

The Watergate break-in (which happened 53 years ago this week) began the modern era of “whatever-it-takes-to-win” politics — blatant disregard of any and all norms and laws that interfered with gaining or keeping power. Trump is the logical and inevitable consequence. https://bit.ly/3QV2m4s

Trump has increasingly usurped the power of Congress. If there were ever a time for the legislative branch to stand up for itself, now would be the time. Congress needs to step up and do its job. Kudos to Bernie.

🚨Trump has ordered an investigation into Biden’s presidency, targeting his cognitive fitness and use of an autopen. The probe into a former political rival is highly unusual in U.S. history and raises concerns over legal system politicization and authoritarian drift.

🧵 Trump crossed yet another red line—this time by deploying 700 military troops to “support” ICE in Florida, Texas, & Louisiana. The Pentagon claims these troops will only provide “logistical, administrative, & “clerical assistance” at detention centers. Please 🙄 tinyurl.com/yhakv3f7

I don’t have to tell you how bad it is. If you’re like me, you approach each day’s news with a knot in your stomach. The question I keep asking myself (and others) is how will this Trumpian daymare end? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/office-hours-how-the-hell-will-this

Great response!!! We need more Carvilles.

Yesterday, the Senate passed industry backed stablecoin "regulation" that does nothing to address Trump's personal investments in crypto. This leaves the door open to quid pro quos and grift from the most self-dealing president in American history. It's legalized corruption.

More of this, pls! Republicans held a hearing to drag up more of their conspiracy theories about Joe Biden. Democrats' response: boycott the hearing, except for a few of them that showed Republicans evidence of what they should be concerned about: the unraveling ahole that is currently in the WH.

The Senate's version of Trump's big, ugly bill enacts even stricter Medicaid work requirements. Make no mistake: Medicaid work requirements don't put people to work. They kick people off their health coverage — all to fund tax cuts for the rich. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzMq...

The White House lashed out at the creators of this ad for "fear-mongering". It must have really struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists. You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE! #MAGAKidnappers

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.
